In The Legend of Zelda video game series, there are several magical rings to find.

In The Legend of Zelda (Original), there are two magical rings for the player to find. The Blue Ring, which is bought in a secret shop for 250 rupees, cuts the amount of damage taken by half. The Red Ring, which is found in Level 9, reduces the amount of damage taken to one-fourth of normal.
